Florida Affirmative Defenses and Oprocedural Objections
Author: Joshua B. Spector
Publisher: Daily Business Review
ISBN: 9781576258262
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Florida Affirmative Defenses and Procedural Objections guides practitioners on the use, pleading, and application of defenses and procedural objections in Florida state civil cases. In particular, the book surveys common and useful defensive motions and procedural objections to be made during the pleading phase of a case. Further, the book examines and discusses various affirmative defenses, including pleading requirements, jury concerns, and notable authority on each defense. Moreover, and of immediate use, the book provides the practitioner with useful forms for each defense. This edition focuses on the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and does not delve into the companion rules or differences found in, for example, the Florida Probate Rules or the Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure. One of the goals of this book is to aid practitioners in both identifying useful, pertinent defenses, and also pleading those defenses in a manner that is resistant to attack or dismissal. While many books offer an obligatory section on historical common law considerations, this book hopes to focus on some basic concepts that are assembled not for their historical value but because these concepts guide and shape the case law governing the pleading, striking, and dismissal of affirmative defenses. The last decade witnessed a tremendous spike in foreclosure filings, [1]particularly in Florida.[2] A peculiar side effect of these cases is the proliferation of certain defenses and yet more sophisticated defense-strategies that featured the use of affirmative defenses to prolong the pleading phase of cases and keep trial and resolution at bay. Certainly, dilatory tactics and so-called sand-bagging are as old as the courts. But this decade, in the opinion of the authors, featured a concentrated dose of motion practice that regarded the pleading of affirmative defenses. While the flurry of activity served to educate the judiciary and promote stricter controls on the pleading of affirmative defenses, the lack of understanding about affirmative defenses suffered by many practitioners came to the forefront.

In particular, the book surveys common and useful defensive motions and procedural objections to be made during the pleading phase of a case. Further, the book examines and discusses various affirmative defenses, including pleading requirements, jury concerns, and notable authority on each defense. Moreover, and of immediate use, the book provides the practitioner with useful forms for each defense. These forms are also available online, so that they may be edited to suit the unique facts and circumstances of each case. For this 2020 edition, we added more than 60 pages of new material, and revised and supplemented the section on personal jurisdiction contests with deeper case law and in-depth discussion of more prongs of Florida's long-arm statute. In Chapter 6, we supplemented the discussion of the affirmative defense of fraud, among others, and added five new defenses: dead and buried doctrine (dissolution of a business entity), independent tort doctrine, necessity (business necessity), sovereign immunity, and way of necessity. With considerably more authority, more in-depth analysis, and even a few graphics, we hope you will find this update valuable to your practice.

Representing Yourself in Federal Court
Author: United States Disctrict Court
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781974174607
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
This Handbook is designed to help people dealing with civil lawsuits in federal court without legal representation. Proceeding without a lawyer is called proceeding "pro se1," a Latin phrase meaning "for oneself," or sometimes "in propria persona," meaning "in his or her own person." Representing yourself in a lawsuit can be complicated, time consuming, and costly. Failing to follow court procedures can mean losing your case. For these reasons, you are urged to work with a lawyer if possible. Chapter 2 gives suggestions on finding a lawyer. Do not rely entirely on this Handbook. This Handbook provides a summary of civil lawsuit procedures, but it may not cover all procedures that may apply in your case. It also does not teach you about the laws that will control your case. Make sure you read the applicable federal and local court rules and do your own research at a law library or online to understand your case. The United States District Court for the Northern District of California has Clerk's Offices in the San Francisco, San Jose and Oakland courthouses. Clerk's Office staff can answer general questions, but they cannot give you any legal advice. For example, they cannot help you decide what to do in your lawsuit, tell you what the law means, or even advise you when documents are due. There are Legal Help Centers in the San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose courthouses where you can get free help with your lawsuit from an attorney who can help you prepare documents and give limited legal advice. This attorney will not be your lawyer and you will still be representing yourself. See Chapter 2 for more details.
